A local newspaper ran a competition asking for a poem with the most
>>romantic first line, but the least romantic second line. Here are some of
>>the entries they received:
>>
>>
>>Love may be beautiful, love may be bliss
>>But I only slept with you because I was pissed.
>>
>>I thought that I could love no other
>>Until, that is, I met your brother
>>
>>Roses are red, violets are blue, sugar is sweet, and so are you.
>>But the roses are wilting, the violets are dead, the sugar bowl's empty,
>>and so is your head.
>>
>>Of loving beauty you float with grace
>>If only you could hide your face
>>
>>Kind, intelligent, loving, and hot
>>This describes everything you are not
>>
>>I want to feel your sweet embrace
>>But don't take that paper bag off of your face
>>
>>I love your smile, your face, and your eyes-
>>Damn, I'm good at telling lies!
>>
>>My darling, my lover, my beautiful wife:
>>Marrying you has screwed up my life
>>
>>I see your face when I am dreaming
>>That's why I always wake up screaming
>>
>>My love you take my breath away
>>What have you stepped in to smell this way?
>>
>>My feelings for you no words can tell
>>Except for maybe "go to hell"
>>
>>What inspired this amorous rhyme?
>>Two parts vodka, one part lime.
